Olivon Off-Axis Guider

With an Off-Axis Guider, you will immediately be capable of taking great astronomy photographs. An Off-Axis Guider (OAG) is an improvement from conventional guide scopes. OAG eliminates the possibility of flexure (pieces of the system shifting) problems when a separate guide scope is used. This is a major problem that requires frequent re-adjustments and prevents you from getting the perfect photo. The Olivon Giant Off-Axis Guider is the solution.

Main Advantages of using an Off-Axis Guider:

Lighter and more compact than a separate guide scope, reducing the overall weight of your system and allowing lighter mounts to be used.

More precise tracking because of the elimination of flexures thus shifting images. The guiding camera and your main camera will always accurately move together.

Brighter and higher resolution images of the guide star on the guiding camera, making it easier to notice and correct tracking errors.

Main Advantages of the Olivon Giant Off-Axis Guider 60/30:

No Vignetting: With a large clear aperture of 60mm, the images will be bright, and there will be enough light even for large forma sensors.

Low Profile: The Off-Axis Guider is only 31 mm tall, which can accommodate a large focuser that corrects back focus problems.

Easily Locating Guide Stars: Two features on OL-GOAG 60/30 designed to help you scan the sky: the guiding turret can rotate 100° freely without affecting the main camera; the prism can be easily tilted with a thumbscrew.

Ergonomic Operations: No tools are necessary for operation. Controls were designed to be easy to use even with gloves on.
